Abstract
The ITER ion-cyclotron range of frequency (ICRH) heating system is required to couple 20 MW of power in the frequency range 40–55 MHz for a large range of scenarios with Edge Localized Modes. To mitigate the associated risks, it is foreseen to design and install on ITER two port-plug antennas for a total of 20 MW coupled power on long pulse operation [1]. The CEA activity to this antenna design within the CYCLE consortium was focused on the Faraday screen design (Fig. 1) and associated radio frequency (RF) sheath modelling, the reflectometers design for edge density measurement in the antenna vicinity and a contribution to the remote handling/tooling of the antenna. This paper is an overview of each item and proposes some R&D activities on key components.
